This model borrows some concepts from John McKeever's Stellations of the Dodecagon. This is one of the first times I've drawn diagrams for something with such a complex color-change pattern, and it was an interesting challenge to draw something with intermeshed layers like this in a program that only supports stacked layers.
Anyway, I was thinking about it and I realized that I spent more time diagramming this model than I did designing and folding it-- which may be a first for me, usually I fold it at least twice before diagramming it.

This week we've got another model from Ryan Welsh, and it's the first insect we've featured so far. I have to say, I really enjoyed folding this model; he uses the wonderful coincidences of eightfold symmetry to great effect.

The anniversaries of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings were this week, and so we're releasing diagrams for a crane variation today. It's a little simpler than our usual fare, but it's elegant and, I think, still quite an interesting model.
Diagrams here. Some advice: step 18 and 20 will be easier if you use a pencil or toothpick to help squash the layers inside the flap. Read More |
